first of all it does work with the original model because it is a part of the original model, it's simply a copie of the cockpit itself retextured all you would have to do is make all cockpit partws invisable and apply the conforming prop, I don't know what i need to do to make a mat file to make the parts invisable but i can say all you got to do is turn trans to full blast and turn off higlights and spectral.
